Transfer case or transmission leak

Nice work. That bearing seems pretty large, I’m surprised the original grenaded. Wonder what the issue was.

 

The only way i can think that bearing failed was lack of fluid maybe and it got too hot. I have a feeling the seal may have went first and fluid was getting past but i wasnt aware and then the bearing was getting too hot from that and finished off the seal the rest of the way. If my truck didnt hard shift into first i would have never thought to look because i never saw fluid on the ground but there was a puddle in my transfer case skid.
